In this paper, we present and discuss the physical implementation and testing of a Spectrally-Encoded Spread-Time Code Devision Multiple Access (SE/ST-CDMA) transceiver. The proposed design is suitable for multiple-access and anti jamming wireless communication systems. The design and implementation takes into account the ability to automatically detect and mitigate tone jammers by altering the corresponding Gold sequence codes assigned uniquely to each user and setting the corresponding code's chip to zero. A simple real-time anti jamming mechanism capable of dealing with frequency hopping jammers is also proposed. The simulation results are provided in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER) versus Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) in one case and the number of multi tone jammers in another, both conditioned on the number of users. Finally, the experimental and simulation results are compared and we observe that they are in a very good agreement.
